I started to just down water when I was around 18 and after a while I didn't mind it to the point where it was actually refreshing. I think I drink too much water now, either that or my bladder isn't what it used to be and i'm only 20. I've never gauged how much i drink but I've probably had more than 8 glasses worth and its only 5:30pm.
I think its disgusting how some people live on 10+ cans of coke etc a day though. Kidney stones are said to be more painful than being shot and child birth, they'll regret it eventually anyway.
